I hate it when shit acts up. I tried automatically upgrading this blog twice to Wordpress 2.6, both times with disastrous results. Today, I did a manual file replace upgrade, and so far it is actually working fine, as far as I can tell anyway, except for one bug. When I add an image into a post, the image will not resize properly, or create a thumbnail image. Continue reading

I always use Firefox for my internet browsing, one of the reasons being that there are so many add ons available to surf and work the way I want to. I was using an add on called “Linky”, which let me select multiple links and open them simutanously with multiple tabs.

There are times when people really piss me off. Not that I’m perfect, a model person, or anything like that, but one thing I pride myself on is that I try to see how my actions will affect others before I do things. I’m not into the “Political Correctness” crap, but I simply try to have basic consideration for people around me. Continue reading
I decided to set up a blog where bloggers that are running contests, promotion, giveaways and all that can post to, to help advertise what they’re doing. Blog-Promo.com will be, hopefully, popular among bloggers running contests, easy to find, easy to use, and beneficial to all who use it. Continue reading
Garage sales and yard sales are pretty popular around here. Most are small and get a handful of visitors. This one was packed. Continue reading
